Some of them have called our president the ďAnti-Christ.Ē They say he hates America, that he is a Muslim, that he doesnít believe in God, one congressman called him a liar to his face in front of all the congressmen and so on, and so onÖ.their hate for him shows and itís not becoming for anyone who claims to be a faithful American loving Christian.

They say Mr. Romney is a good Christian man, they think he will restore Americanís values for us. I hope so, but I canít forget what Jesus said in the Holy Bible about the rich man, please look it up for yourself (Matthew 19:23-24 and James 5:1-6).

I remember reading that when Mr. Romney presided over Bain Capital he put the rich investorsí interest before the workers, those industries down-sized, laid off the workers or closed the factories completely and reopened them off-shore so the companies and the investors could make even more money.

What guarantee will we have that America will not become a plutocracy if Mr. Romney becomes our president? Besides, he was pro-choice when he was governor of Massachusetts, then when he wanted to run for president and needed the endorsement of the Tea Party to get the nomination, he become pro-life; now he wants everyoneís vote, so he can get elected, so he has moved more to the center.

So Iím wondering who Mr. Romney is and, more importantly, what he believes in.

If I remember correctly in 1973 when the Supreme Court ruled on Roe vs. Wade, the Republican president Nixon was in the White House. Since 1968, we have had 28 years with Republican presidents in office, and only 16 years with Democratic, yet according to some Republicans every thing that has gone wrong in America is the fault of the Democrats.

Donít get me wrong, I wish everyone in the world would be pro-life, I wish every one of us ďmost of all meĒ could live life without sinning, wishing we could love one another as Jesus commanded us to do, but we canít impose or control with our restrictions what others will do, we must remember that Jesus died for the sinners and more or less that includes all of us. If we truly believe in Godís words we know that He has given everyone a choice, we can decide for ourselves whatever our conscience puts in our heart, He also asked us not to judge others. I pray God will choose the right man to be our president.
